Professor reacts to Melo Ball JBA League... Ready for NBA?

[@imoboxingtalk5394]

I watched the JBA championship game against Seattle and it really showed that he's not ready for a higher level of talent. Not looking at his stats just the game, they pressured him and Gelo and both Ball brothers had plenty of turn overs. When they pressured LeMelo he would pick up his dribble sometimes before he came across half court and would jump and pass which often ended in TO. He may develop but he doesn't need to rush if he loses confidence at this level

[@facetiouslyinsolent8313]

He's ready to work at the concession stand at a NBA game.

[@caccwoot3616]

this aged well

[@ismaeljrp1]

Honestly Gelo, should have been smart and taken a scholarship to a smaller D1 or D2 school and just gotten an education. He's gotta become his own man. Right now he's just a boy doing whatever his father wants.

[@be4unvme]

of course he does what his father wants, didnt he get like a ferrari. what 19 yo would decline

[@BatDad-qu4fo]

Luis Capellan I'd like to think his father gave him a Ferrari because he loves him and not as a condition to continue doing whatever Lavar says. He could've taken the Ferrari with him to school...

[@be4unvme]

Himura82 yea that too but we live in the real world

[@captainlevi12]

Ismael Rivera gelo wanting to go to the nba is not his father the kid don’t do all this training n hard work to just give up

[@ismaeljrp1]

Captain Levi Dude he doesn't have as much talent as he thinks. He is not top level D1 talent. Not enough talent to get drafted. He should have focused on college ball, possibly a smaller school prove himself for a year and transfer to a better program. He could've assessed his options from there. But since he's still a child he can't even think for himself.

[@MarcusTheDrummer]

People just look at how many points they scored but do not look at EVERYTHING else that really MATTERS in the NBA. The Ball boys played horrible in this League. Playing in this League showed the NBA scouts that they will do terrible in the NBA. The efficiency from them was trash. Gelo shooting 44% from the field, 31% from 3 pointers, and 71% from the Free Throw Line with 19 Turnovers. Melo was WORSE with 43% from FG, 23% from 3 pointers with 71 Turnovers.

Aye thanks for the vids proffessor

[@TechnoGuy11]

This JBA is a joke with no good players in it. Scoring 40 against bums isn't going to help his chances of getting to the NBA. Thier father ruined any chance either had of making it to the league, well Gelo stealing in China and leaving UCLA didn't help either. Prof saying these are guys that didn't have the Duke or UNC scholarships, shit these are the guys that didn't have juco scholarships.

[@GRXvisuals]

Against bums ? But they won? Do you even play ball?

[@aaronaaron5286]

Rafael Diaz they won with biased officiating

[@JesseWorld1000]

Rafael Diaz I'm in agree. The prof. Did admit that they were all good players but no the top tier notch. I would say good players are a long way from calling them a bum.

[@Savisoundman1]

Lavar is deluding his sons into thinking they are elite players. They should’ve went to college and played against the best talent in the country not in a league that their dad runs. Big shocker that they won. Why are they even talking about NBA? They are good, but NBA good? True Melo is getting better but I just don’t see it, not against the best. I don’t even see him being top 10 in college ball.

[@scottsmalls2925]

3:13 Just today I was working on tip in dunks with my son Nick. I have been racking my brain for months as to how to get him onto the high school team. He's one year away from trying out for the Freshman team. Then last night it came to me. Tip in dunks. If he can pull off a bunch of those at the tryouts the coaches have to notice. Of course, we're still working on all of the fundamentals and defense and team play. But there's going to be 85 kids at the tryout, all of them haven been playing CYO for 9 years, and only 12 of them are going to make the team. So, tip in dunks. Nick has to do them at tryouts. That's the plan.

DJ Danger its not judging him off of one game I've been following him from lkl through the jba, watching the other videos they put out on basketball channels too and he looks worse. His highlights always looked way better then his full game footage because of his style of play but he was an offensive beast in high school. He showed signs of being able to be a really high level scorer. He just doesn't look like that now he just got taller and bigger but honestly consistently looks worse

What people don't understand is is that the JBA is a second chance for alot of these ballers who couldn't get into the NCAA whether it be grades, skill, maybe just their situation in general. The JBA is not only giving these guys a chance to do what they love but they're getting paid and being taught how to manage their money. A couple of players even got a chance to play overseas. The competition isn't as bad as people think too. People just automatically thinks it's shit just cause it's Lavars league but I applauded him. He's helping all of these guys one way or another and I have faith in this league one day people will take it more serious and give it a chance instead of just bashing it just cause it's the ball family
